Famous Residents

James Joyce was born in Rathgar, in Brighton Square, so it's well he could afford to swan off to Paris to write books that no one can understand. Another famous author, Bram Stoker, lived in Orwell Park in the later part of his life. His book about a man with slicked-back hair who dresses in black and sucks blood out of people is believed to be based on his experiences with South Dublin estate agents. Jack Lynch, Ireland's former Taoiseach, lived in Rathgar for a time and is believed to be the only GAA player ever to do so, while the murdered underworld figure Martin Cahill – aka The General – lived at Cowper Downs… a bit too close to Rathgar for the liking of many locals.
